China Post Rush To Cross Border Logistics Clearance Capability Highlights

In November 28th, it was in the United States.

When the shopping frenzy started, China Post Express Logistics Limited by Share Ltd quietly upgraded the platform in the form of "China Post sea outsourcing".

Market.

In recent years, major private courier companies have been distributing overseas, and China Post has been constantly adjusting policies to cope with competition for a long time.

For the competition pressure of private courier companies in cross border parcel market, the chief consultant of Express Consulting Network Xu Yong said, "in the short term, it will not have much impact."

Balance of entry and exit parcel quantity difference

This on-line "

"Overseas warehouse plus shipping mode" is adopted. The overseas customers send the goods to the overseas warehouse through the local express, then send the goods from abroad to China by the China Post, and are responsible for customs clearance, terminal distribution and other links.

The reporter learned from China post that the current "China Post sea outsourcing" has only opened the US market for a while, and the express business in Europe, South America and other regions will be gradually launched.

For the China Post Online "the oil sea outsourcing", relevant personages told reporters, in the postal delivery in the long-term cross-border express, there are many outbound parts, and fewer entries, the platform is on-line to a certain extent, in order to ease the postal mail cross-border express this imbalance.

"The advantage of China Post in cross border express is more out of the country, and in terms of entry, the share of the international express company is larger. The amount of the postal and entry parts is several times."

The source told reporters.

The direct consequence of the imbalance of entry and exit parts is that it is difficult to achieve optimal allocation of resources, resulting in the phenomenon of full empty return, which makes the cost difficult to reduce.

"Cross border express structure in the past is more export and less entry, but in recent years, the potential of entry has gradually emerged in the market, which makes it possible for the cost to be leveled off."

The source said.

According to the data of China Electronic Commerce Research Center, the scale of pactions in China's overseas purchasing market in 2013 exceeded 70 billion yuan.

In 2013, the consumption scale of Alipay's "Hai Tao" increased by 117% over the same period last year.

In the short term, the advantage is still obvious.

China post is not the first express delivery company to launch pshipment platform this year. A few months ago, SF also launched its own pport platform, "Shun Feng Hai Tao".

Both of them are almost identical in terms of service delivery time, and cross border express delivery from the us to China is about 10 days.

In recent years, there have been some changes in the cross border express market dominated by China Post, including a number of private couriers including Shun Feng, Yuantong, rhyme and so on.

"Compared with other private couriers, one of the advantages of China post is strong customs clearance."

Xu Yong said.

China Post has cooperated with Australia to speed up the two-way clearance capability. The package from Australia to China can be pasted on the Chinese side, leaving the clearance procedures in China, and vice versa.

It has been revealed that this cooperation mode has also been tried to popularize in other countries.

"Although with the rise of the free trade area, the advantages of customs clearance will gradually weaken, but in the short term, the status of postal service is still hard to shake."

Xu Yong said.

For China Post cross-border business, the solution to the poor internal co-ordination seems to be more urgent than alleviating the external competition situation.

In 2013, China Post adjusted the price of its international packet business.

The person concerned told reporters that the price adjustment was not a price increase, but a return to the original price planned at that time.

"The pricing power of international packet business has been devolved to postal companies in various regions, but the pricing of postal companies in various regions is far lower than the original pricing, and the lowest price is even 62% off of the original price.

Because international express is the most profitable business of China Post, after coordination, the headquarters only collected the pricing power in 2013 and restored the original price.

The source told reporters.

The "China Post sea outsourcing" is also promoted by headquarters. The local companies have not yet been informed by the headquarters.

Target population or C users.

The pfer mode adopted by "China Post sea outsourcing" is not new to China Post.

When private couriers have not yet tried to develop cross-border express business, many express and logistics companies need to pfer through postal mail when sending cross-border goods.

"A few years ago, some of the share of China's post office express was pferred to other logistics companies, which is called agent in China Post, also known as" sitting ".

At that time, many international agencies were born.

The above personage told reporters.

For China Post, this time the former pshipment mode was made into a platform form, Xu Yong analyzed: "China post is hoping to directly enter the C terminal customers of cross-border electricity providers and Hai Tao through the platform."

However, the courier business in the cross-border electricity market is not good.

CEO Wujiang, a cross-border food e-commerce supplier, said that the current mode of cross-border electricity providers generally used to build a warehouse in the bonded area. The goods were pported to the country in advance, and the links needed mainly included customs clearance and domestic distribution.

"Foreign food network currently operates in over 140 countries, with a wide variety of goods and huge volume. Generally, it is pported by container to the bonded area, so that the logistics cost can be the lowest.

This way of setting up warehouse and shipping is in line with the trend of cross-border electricity supplier development in the future.

Wu Yang said.

In Wu Yang's view, the pshipment platform of China Post may be more suitable for users of C terminal with high value-added electronic products and clothing.
